Used VARIAN 3290 #9236373 for sale

VARIAN 3290 capacitively-coupled magnetron sputtering equipment is a widely-used deposition system used in academic and industrial laboratories for thin film deposition purposes. The machine was designed to offer greater reliability and efficiency while simultaneously reducing the overall cost of the sputtering process. The unit relies on a capacitively-coupled radio-frequency (rf) power source to generate the ions required for sputtering. This allows for the transfer of energy to the target material, leading to a process which is more consistent and repeatable. The rf power provides the machine with greater energy control, allowing it to achieve an appropriate level of sputtering rate for each application. 3290 also boasts magnetic field-enhanced neutralization technology, which ensures the highest ionization rate while simultaneously protecting tool components from damage due to energetic ion bombardment. The combination of this technology and the use of o-ring seals ensure that the asset is able to remain reliably sealed for the duration of the deposition process. The model also comes with a variety of ancillary features, notably its auto-tuning capability which allows the user to optimize the sputtering process without the need for manual adjustment. Additionally, the process chamber is equipped with in-situ diagnostics to monitor the process gas reaction. VARIAN 3290 sports a versatile range of substrate holders to accommodate a wide variety of substrates such as silicon, aluminium, gold and other metals. Its modular design also allows for the use of an additional sputtering source, offering an array of options for different applications. This sputtering equipment is ideal for a variety of thin film depositions, including optical coatings and semiconductor components. It is noted for its reliability and versatility, making it a popular option for academic and industrial laboratories alike. The combination of its efficient operation and its cost-effective nature make it an unbeatable option for anyone looking to save money without compromising on quality.
